Abstract

Oregon State University (OSU) is requesting technical assistance for design configuration, assembly, and bench testing of 4 state-of-the-art drifting hydrophone systems per OSU technical specification and aligned with IEC TS 62600 -40 Acoustic Characterization of Marine Energy Converters. The technical assistance objective of this request will bring online another state-of-the-art drifting hydrophone technology where there is limited availability for these systems for use at marine energy projects. The objectives of the technical assistance will significantly advance OSU’s existing drifting hydrophone technology and enable them to provide important state of the art hydrophone sensors and platforms for monitoring devices in support of marine energy testing activities across the industry. Leveraging the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory’s (PNNL) TEAMER facility expertise will provide significant improvements to this new drifting hydrophone technology with additional added value through hardware and sensor integration, wireless communication, commercial pressure housing modifications, bench testing and calibration.

Large language models for transportation research: Methodologies, state of the art, and future opportunities

The rapid rise of large language models (LLMs) is transforming transportation research, with significant advancements emerging between 2023 and 2025, a period marked by the inception and swift growth of adopting and adapting LLMs for various transportation applications. Despite these significant advancements, however, a systematic review and synthesis of the existing literature remains lacking. This paper aims to fill this gap by providing a comprehensive review of the methodologies and applications of LLMs in transportation. We explore key applications, including autonomous driving, travel behavior prediction, and general transportation-related queries, alongside LLM methodologies such as zero- or few-shot learning, prompt engineering, and fine-tuning. From the review, critical research gaps are identified. From the methodological perspective, many of the research limitations can be addressed by integrating LLMs with existing tools and refining LLM architectures. From the application perspective, research opportunities for LLMs to address various transportation challenges are also explored. By synthesizing these findings, this review not only presents the state-of-the-art LLM adoption and adaptation in transportation, but also proposes future research directions as well as insights and recommendations for policymakers and practitioners, paving the way for greater LLM-driven research innovations in transportation in the future.
